Game Load Fail (PS4)

I’m playing on PS4, and I’ve died a couple of times, attempted to “Continue” but was unpleasantly notofied of “Game Load Failed.” I didn’t play the Baron quest either. This happened multiple times with both autosaves from sleeping, autosaves from story progress, and solid saves from Savior drink (can’t recall official name).

This is a huge disappointment. I’m not going to be playing the game until a major update is released. I already downloaded the update released on 2/19/2018 with version 1.2 (the 23 GB update). It’s a waste of time to play the game until it’s resolved because it ends up setting one hours back in gameplay.

Warhorse Studios, how would you feel if all your progress in improving the game to actually be playable were constantly erased, and each time it were erased, it set you back in days of having to rewrite all your code again? It’d be frustrating, right? That’s essentially what’s happening to so many gamers on all game systems. Please make this game playable/saveable.

Also, Warhorse Studios, please make saving more frequent, as many people who game have busy lives and therefore can’t constantly go back to a far-past save every time one dies.

Same problem her…game is not playable…

Thank you, the problem is reported to our QA Departement.

Hi,
sorry you are having problem with loading, can you please answer few questions, that will help us to locate the problem?

*Did you started to play on older version and now are you trying to load the saves from older version you are using now?
*Can you provide your saves that we can look into them and be able to discover what happened? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsbK771GkAs)
*Which quests are active in this save you are not able to load?
*You are not able to load any saves right now? All of the files will fail?

You can replay here with tag on me, or on Jan.Rucker@warhorsestudios.cz if needed or more convenient.
Cheers

@Kalli Yes that will, please send me the saves with the other questioned answered if possible.
Thanks

Np…here they are: zu Diensten meine Herrin; Alles, was glitzert; Plündernde Kumanen, fragen und Antworten;

Any idea how i can enjoy the game anyway?

Thanks for replying, Jan Rucker!

To answer your questions:

  1. I did start playing on an older version, right before the 23 GB update, but I didn’t have an issue loading my most recent save.

  2. It’s not that I am not able to load a displayed save, it’s that my game keeps actively saving throughout my gameplay, like when I sleep in my bed or by progressing through the game, and then I did, try to “Continue” (letting the game load my most recent save), and then I get an error message “Game Load Failed.” When I go to the “Load” menu, I see that none of those autosaves are even there. The last time this happened, it set me back for 3 hours of gameplay, even though I specifically recall it saving multiple times by sleeping and progressing in the game.

To sum it up, I’m not having an issue loading a displayed save, the problem is that my game keeps saying it saves, but they aren’t displayed in the “Load” menu.

trim save files or KCD will be unplayable on PS4

Do you mean delete older save files?

yes, keep no more than 10

it appears both WH and Sony (despite their certification claims) don’t adequately stress test saves

That’s interesting. After my setback of gameplay last night, I did delete older saves, but I didn’t try playing again, mostly because who knows if it will happen again, and then I’ll have wasted more time in gameplay.

Have you personally found it helpful, though?

yes, lost sound once. trimmed. restarted. worked fine again. had a fatal CE crash. trimmed again. restarted. worked fine.

Experiencing the same issue with multiple save files.

This is going from ridiculous to plain stupid rather quickly.
